Introducing Wellcome Film

Wellcome Film, an online digital collection of moving images on 20th-century healthcare and medicine, chronicles the history of medicine over the last 100 years. On the Internet Archive just over 200 titles are freely available under Worldwide non-commercial Creative Commons licences. The earliest footage dates from the founder, Sir Henry Wellcome's time (an American-born pharmaceutical magnate, 1853-1936) - rare footage from Gebel (or Jebel) Moya in the Sudan 1912-13 showing scenes of everyday life, archaeological digging, communal sports and recreation. Later decades are represented by films featuring breakthrough medicine such as surgical techniques and drug treatments. Many pioneering pharmacological processes including an enduring legacy of research into tropical medicine were developed by the business started by Sir Henry and have laid the foundations of the biomedical charity, the Wellcome Trust, of today.

Wellcome Film is a resource created by the Wellcome Library, part of Wellcome Collection. Wellcome Collection provides insight and information to anyone seeking to understand medicine and its role in society, past and present.
